ASUO Council Will Retain Old By-Laws Parts Not Conflicting Willi New Constitution Temporarily Allowed liy Judiciary Group Legislation of the executive council Thursday night to retain the old ASUO by-laws in points not conflicting with the new consti tution and decision to let them run concurrently was approved by the judiciary committee yesterday, Dean Wayne L. Morse, judiciary committee head, announced yes terday. “This is more or less a tempor ary move and will probably be al tered when the new constitution committee submits their plans to the executive council," James Blais, ASUO president, said. Council Hus Power Power vested in the executive council under the new constitution making it a legislative body brought about the adoption Thurs day of a resolution framed by Dean James Gilbert, faculty member of the executive council. In view of the legal and techni cal complications that would arise concerning all actions taken in stu dent body activities since the adop tion of the new constitution, the council fostered concurrence of the old by-laws in points where they comply with the newly adopted constitution. All conflicting by laws are automatically thrown out under this ruling. Questions were raised early this week by Tex Thomason, in the Em erald’s Stage of the World column, whether the ASUO technically had any by-laws. James Blais then in quired of the judiciary committee whether the ASUO former by-laws were legally in operation, what ac tion could be taken to make them legal, and what limitations are governing various branches which heretofore came under the old by laws. Ray Mize, member of the judi ciary committee, prepared a report suggesting changes in the by-laws. He brought out that although the by-laws are mentioned many times in the new constitution, conflicts in many sections makes it apparent that the old by-laws w«re not in tended for the new constitution. The committee upheld Thomason’s belief that the ASUO had no by laws but contended that as actions had been taken in good faith the executive council could clear up the situation by retroactive law. A meeting of the executive coun cil was called for Monday by Blais but as many members could not attend the meeting was postponed until Thursday. Reports from the constitutional committee, headed by Bill Schloth, are expected within the next two weeks, Blais said yesterday. Fol lowing the receipt of the report changes in constitution and by laws will be considered. Webfoots Drop (C out in iii'd from Page Three) then Egge snagged Bishop’s pass and arched one in from the corner to give Washington its first lead of the game, 24 to 23. The battling Huskies clung tenaciously to their hard-won advantage for the next few moments, then raced it in a jiffy to five points and coasted to the finish. Washington Beads There were 12 minutes to go when Washington stepped into the lead it never lost.

Eishop caged a foul, but Liebowitz erased it with a free toss and How ell hoisted in Lieby's rebound to bring Oregon within three points, 29 to 26. Eight minutes remained and the Webfoots had a fighting chance. Egge and Bishop took all the fight out of it with successive one-hand ers, however, and the Huskies practically clinched it as Bishop, their leading scorer with 12 points, holed a shot qn Howell’s foul. Huskies Stall Score was 34 to 26 and Wash ington went into a tantalizing stall. Hobson substituted one man after another, but Oregon couldn’t break up the Huskies’ clever keep away passes. Once Liebowitz, fighting madly, knocked down a pass, dribbled wildly down court, and holed a one hander from the keyhole. That was Oregon’s final gesture. Three minutes were left; the Huskies stalled away two of them and then Bishop broke away to lay in Egge’s pass and sew it up completely. Bishop's 11 counters gave him point collecting honors for the eve ning, though Wagner went him one better in goals from the floor with five to the center’s four. Bish op holed three free throws.

Smith, geologist, had the unique experience Thurs day of visiting a school where no attendance records are kept, no grades or credits given, and where the student may come and go as he pleases. This is the Grants Pass mining school which has recently been established with a $25,000 government grant. It is a practical mining school where 700 men and boys are ac tually taught to get gold from the hills. “Miners come in and stay awhile and then go back to the hills again. If they find gold, their schooling has been successful,” said Dr. Smith. Pupils are taught to use sluice boxes, rockers; to con struct timber tunnels; and to pan for gold. Methods for the mining of chromite, manganese, and iron are also taught. Dr. Smith made the trip to Grants Pass with Governor Martin, Mr. P. H. Babcock, state engineer, and Mr. O. D. Adams, state direc tor of vocational education. A special luncheon was held in their honor, with each man making a short speech.

Gilbert, dean of Oregon’s school of social science, at the forum luncheon of the Eu gene Chamber of Commerce yes terday. Although declaring that he “must preserve some measure of partiality” in his talk, Dean Gil bert came out openly against the tax and refuted arguments sup porting it. According to Dean Gilbert, one of the reasons why the proponents of the tax support it is because it insures prompt collection. Dean Gilbert asserted that it was “too prompt.” Other arguments supporting the tax and refuted by Dean Gilbert were that it would be a productive tax, painless in its extraction and would cost the state little to col lect. Dean Gilbert explained that, however productive the tax would be, it would produce only one-third of what its proponents say it will. “It would be one of the costliest taxes to collect,” asserted Dean Gilbert, “not to the government, but to the merchants. “Whether it falls on the dealer or is thrown off on the consumer the tax is unjust and inequitable. “Forty-three leading economists have voted seven to one against it. “It is a regressive tax, rising as V Flays Naiis James G.

F. G. Thach er, giving his reactions to the "big city” and his work in several prominent places of business. Sak’s Fifth-Avenue, where Em mett worked all fall, was quite an exciting one, as he describes: "I waited on many internation ally known actors, politicians, art ists . . . For floor men, the store features ex-Wall street tycoons, and we even had Prince George of the Romanoffs to OK the checks.” About the first of December, Emmett left Sak’s to become jun ior executive in the merchandising division of the Altman organiza tion. Here he learned many good principles in the retailing field. For a while, he was night secre tary at the retailing school, and he secured a job working on a new book on advertising by Mr. Howr ard of Montgomery Ward and Co., and Dr. Edwards of New York university. The book is to be pub lished in February, and Emmett asked for comments from Profes sor Thacher upon the book. Emmett, who was a business ad ministration major, class of ’35, states: "I never fully realized to what extent an education really does open up new fields for a person to enter until I began working here.” Commenting on the New York social life, he says, ‘‘I’ve seen al most all the places that we on the coast know about, which to the New Yorker are complete myster ies.” As his next stop, Emmett hopes to work in some line on the New York Times. Wesleyans Give Peace Program Sunday will be' a busy day for members of the Student Christian council and Wesley clubbers, who go to Brownsville to tell young people there the advantages of peace in contrast to war. “Mother Earth and Her Child ren,” a play discussing the causes and possible means of prevention of war, will be presented by the Student Christian council. Howard Ohmart will speak on peace. At Lebanon the same day, Dor othy Nyland, director of Methodist student activities at Oregon, will describe her experiences in the Orient, where she traveled exten sively for two months. i„it,t*4t#ltrltft»4tfl»4*4*4*444'4*4444»4»444'V REMEMBER Baker’s Film Shop FOR YOUR FILMS We Develop and Print Films “Our University Business Is Proof of Our Work ’ 668 Willamette how they do move
